What this clause does
Nothing entitles you to verify what you earned or what was deducted.
Why it hurts you
You cannot check that the commission was calculated correctly, and you will not find out about errors in your favour. Any agency confident in its arithmetic will agree to this.
What a fair version looks like
Monthly itemised statements plus an annual audit right.
Wording you can send back
Agency shall provide monthly itemised statements of all revenue and deductions, and Creator may audit Agency's records relating to this Agreement once per year on reasonable notice.
Paste this into your reply. Asking for a specific change is far more effective than asking them to "soften" a clause.
